The Parenting Now!® curriculum is derived from the nationally recognized, evidence-based curriculum Make Parenting A Pleasure®. The Parenting Now!curriculum is customized for the general population of parents with children ages 0-6, with more emphasis on child development and parenting skills such as emotion coaching and parental values.

Simplified to seven sessions, Parenting Now! is ideal for use in health care systems, community colleges and other organizations that wish to offer in-depth parenting education to the universal population of parents of young children. Parenting Now! is research-based and evidence-informed.

The Parenting Now! curriculum is designed to utilize a group dialogue methodology which respects the skills of the parenting educator, empowers families and can be adapted to suit a wide range of environments and populations to improve family outcomes. The parenting educator acts as a guide to help the families discover unrealized parenting knowledge. This approach raises the confidence of parents as they discover that they already possess the capabilities necessary to achieve their family goals.

The Parenting Now! curriculum topics include:

• Self care
• Stress and anger management
• Communication skills
• Positive discipline
